Muzumdar Backs BCCI as India Skips Women's Asia Cup Trophy Presentation
· Sports · Times of India, NDTV Sports, News18
India women's head coach Amol Muzumdar has backed the BCCI's decision to skip the Women's Asia Cup trophy presentation ceremony in Dubai. The Indian team stayed away from the stage as ACC president and PCB chairman Mohsin Naqvi presented runners-up medals to Sri Lanka following India's 72-run victory in the final. Muzumdar stated that the team considers the tournament officially over after securing the championship title. The boycott follows a similar precedent set by the Indian men's team during last year's Asia Cup amid diplomatic tensions.
Why it matters
The boycott underscores ongoing diplomatic tensions between cricket boards in India and Pakistan, affecting regional tournament protocols.
